I've been running a simple script that uses curl to generate a token
from a web service. Up until the last release (7.47.0-2), this had
been working fine. Now, however, I'm consistently getting
curl: (55) Failed sending HTTP request
The script I have boils down to this curl request:
$ curl --header "$header"
https://implementation.concursolutions.com/net2/oauth2/accesstoken.ashx
where $header contains
$ echo "$header"
Authorization: Basic Sm9oblNtaXRoQGRhdGFpbnRlbnNpdHlsbGMuY29tOldlbGNvbWUxCg==
X-ConsumerKey: oEcc7vFraW66kVlr3zWb6i
(these are values for a dummy account with this provider set up to
allow access to their token service)
A separate --header flag should be used for each header that you wish to
set. IOW:
curl --header "Authorization: Basic $AUTH" --header "X-ConsumerKey:
$KEY" $URL
